The Mourners:

Tomb Sculptures from the Court of Burgundy

Between 2010 and 2012, FRAME is bringing 39 celebrated masterpieces of medieval Burgundian sculpture to seven museums across the United States. The Mourners consists of sculptures from the tomb of John the Fearless (1342-1404), the second duke of Burgundy. His elaborate tomb, once housed at a monastery on the outskirts of Dijon, is now one of the centerpieces of the Musée des Beaux-Arts of Dijon which, with the Dallas Museum of Art, is organizing the exhibition.
